Quick response program

Similarly, quick response programs in the apparel industry focused on decreasing apparel delivery lead time. The competitive benefit of lead-time reduction has been estimated to be equivalent to the profit associated with a 40% demand increase. In short, time can generate money for the supply chain.

The titration procedures described in the literature can be classified as continuous or incremental, depending on the mode of titrant addition. In the first case the titrant is continuously introduced in the reaction vessel at a programmed (not necessarily constant) rate during a run. The application of this method requires apparatus with quick response to temperature changes and can be used only to study fast reactions. Slow reactions (i.e., those with a reaction time longer than the equilibrium time of the reaction vessel) may be accurately studied by the... 

To make the most efficient use of computer storage, and to give a quick response time, the efficient sparse matrix solution algorithm developed by D. J. Gunn (1977) (1982) is used in program MM3, but any suitable procedure for the solution of linear simultaneous equations can be used.

An effective preventive maintenance system can ensure that equipment and machinery operates properly, which reduces the chance of an accident. A quick-response corrective maintenance program is also very important. Faulty equipment and machinery that could cause a serious injury or fatality should be taken immediately out of service. Maintenance work orders that correct hazards should be identified as unique from other work orders. You don t want safety work orders at the bottom of a stack of work orders. 

Change" as used here refers to a new or fundamentally different system or procedure. Replacement in kind is excluded. All true modifications must be well documented. No modifications should be permitted without prior authorization and follow-up documentation. Extensive or higher levels of change should require higher levels of authorization. A carefully planned and executed Change Control Program must be instituted to prevent the hazards that often arise from quick responses. 

There is a copy of DAR resident in memory for each GC-MS system. This is to assure quick response during the data acquisition phase. The remaining analysis and control programs are disc resident and are swapped in and out of memory, as needed, on a priority basis. Time spent in DAR is dead time for data collection. When... 

First aid training is primarily received through the American Red Cross, the National Safety Council, and private institutions. The American Red Cross offers standard and advanced first aid courses via their local chapters. After completing the course and successfiiUy passing the written and practical tests, trainees receive two certificates adrdt CPR and first aid. An emphasis on quick response to first aid situations is incorporated throughout the program. 

Remember as you set priorities that you and your team must consider the expected benefit to the company, division, or unit as a whole, rather than simply addressing a single gap. Obviously, any specific immediate risk you identify in the course of your assessment must be dealt with quickly and responsibly however, be careful not to let anomalous findings skew your perspective on broader priorities. For example, the absence of a capital project review process is a significant gap. However, if there is only one project per year this gap may have lower priority than an existing but seriously deficient operator training program. 

Even a quick examination of Exhibits 2-5 and 2-6 points out the considerable duplication that exists within Xmple, Inc. Not only are there separate management systems delivering their three programs (PSM, occupational safety and industrial hygiene, and environment) there are also several duplicate programs. For example, storage of hazardous chemicals and spill response are covered by all three systems. The lists are also incomplete undoubtedly Xmple, Inc. implements all requirements of Responsible Care , but it is listed only under occupational safety and industrial hygiene. 

I As you develop your network of tasks, you will quickly realize that not only are tasks within one priority area interrelated, but there are also relationships with other priority areas. These relationships will determine the order in which some tasks are completed and the resources you need to apply to complete them by a given date. For example, the team will need to develop programs and elements before they develop the contents of a training program, yet the training program itself may be a vital part of the process for developing individual responsibilities for that content. 

Personnel Chief. The personnel chief is responsible for accounting for all personnel on the facility at the time of the emergency. Unit emergency programs must include training on how this is accomplished. Unit supervisors initiate the process with headcounts at designated rally points. The success of rescue and medical activities depends on how quickly and thoroughly this information is obtained and reported to the personnel chief.
